I really like this quote. The only photographer you should compare yourself to is the one you used to be. I have always suffered with low self esteem and loved photography but never put much thought into it until a few years ago when I really started to discover the art of photography. I still tend to compare my self to other photographers I know but every photographer is different just like every snowflake is different. What I need to focus on is how far I've come as a photographer and what my goals are for the future as a photographer. My passion for photography started in high school on a black and white film camera in the dark room of the photolab. Watching your photos come to life on film is invigorating. Now that the digital world is here you can see your creations alot sooner but it doesn't lessen the passion anymore than on film. Looking back on my pictures even from a couple years ago I can see how much I've learned and improved and how I've learned to control the most important element of a photograph which is light. Light is a challenging thing and photography has a lot to do with knowing where the light is and knowing how to adjust to get the best lighting.
Today I have a senior session and it has been raining all week. It will be overcast most likely tonight so I might not get the golden light from the sunset but I should still have some awesome light for her pictures. I'm really looking forward to this session and am not going to compare how I did to other photographers because each one is unique.
